For the main course, a wide variety of dishes are available ranging from the spicy Kari Kepala Ikan, sweet Ayam Masak Madu and even the famous local Nasi Minyak Hujan Panas. Most of the dishes are quite okay, but one of the noteworthy one is the appetizing oven baked snapper fillet with lemon cream sauce.

Besides all the main dishes, there is this "Live" station that prepares Teppanyaki, Cendol, Deep Fried Food such as chicken, fish, prawns and so on. One of the highlight is the Cheese Murtabak whereby the chef put in a lot of ingredients that not commonly found outside. Most importantly, eat it while it is still hot from the plate!

Chiak Penang - Telur Ikan Masak Lemak

The specialty of the day was the Telur Ikan Masak Lemak, very unique just by the name itself right? Yup, literally it uses the fish roe to cook with coconut milk to make the gravy with tiny little bits of fish roe. A bit odd when you taste the gravy itself but goes really well with a bowl of white rice.
